An Automated Approach to Conversion and Migration

 

Why Are Migration Projects Such A Challenge?

Most CIO’s are anxious to migrate away from their old legacy data integration programs to mitigate technology risks, regulatory risks and to reduce costs. Like most organizations, as business requirements have changed over time, it was easier to create post-processing add-ons rather than applying patches to the existing code because no one really understood how the code worked.

 

Over time, business rules and data structures have changed significantly, developers have moved on, and no one really understands how the legacy code works. Your code has grown into an undocumented and unmanageable asset that represents a real risk to your mission-critical applications.

 

According to industry analysts 80% of all migration projects fail or
run seriously over budget or over time

 

LoganBritton Will Take the Pain and Risk Out Of Your Migration Project

Continual advances in technology have a weakening effect on the business value of older legacy based data integration code. Maintenance costs of legacy systems are becoming prohibitive, representing a large percentage of the IT budget. This code does not even come close to providing the many efficiencies and benefits offered by today’s efficient data integration tools. So the CIO is left with a daunting task to modernize these systems while keeping their existing functionality intact.

 

Whether your migration project involves re-platforming existing code, re-architecting an entire system, or standardizing on a new ETL technology, the challenges remain. Migration is difficult and painful. LoganBritton can take the pain and risk out of your migration project. LoganBritton has a clearly migration methodology which is based on a unique and AUTOMATED approach to conversion and migration. This approach directly addresses the risk factors that cause conventional migration projects to fail or run over time and budget.

LoganBritton’s Unique Automated Approach to Migration

 

LoganBritton makes conversion, migration and

consolidation projects fast, feasible and affordable.

Most importantly your risk is substantially reduced.

 

LoganBritton will perform your most difficult migration

project on time and under budget with an extremely

high degree of accuracy and proficiency.

 

This is accomplished by using new technologies to

automate the most time consuming and error prone

tasks. This is the automated discovery and documentation

of the source-to-target transformation logic and business

rules, and the generation of executable ETL code. This

approach insures a high degree of accuracy and efficiency.
